They were in a bag for updating the K2, but my K2 was already up to date and so I did not need them. They are very small shiny dark yellow with short legs and a "101" label. > As for the 33 pf capacitor, what is the diameter of the one you have in > hand?

The 33pF 50V is pale brown, and the C5F is shiny yellow and larger. Thank you very much for your quick help. But when I sorted the capacitors, I found that I miss one of the "151" types, 150pF, 1KV, I have only 4 of them packed and there should be 5 after the parts inventory. I'll have to ask "spares at elecraft.com" for support. It is recommended and a good idea to count the parts in advance, although I would always drop this part of the manual :-( 73! de Werner OE9FWV -- health, n.: The slowest possible way of dying.
